Abstract

A solution authoring tool that includes an authoring environment that allows for the authoring of multiple projects of a solution including a database project that has a schema and a partner project that has a reference to the schema. When the database project is built and deployed, the database schema is made ready for runtime. When the partner project is built and deployed, the schema reference is provided within the partner software such that the partner software may interface with the database schema at runtime. To reduce or eliminate database schema drift at development time causing runtime errors at runtime, a model bus at least partially synchronizes changes made to the schema in the database project to the schema reference in the partner project, and vice versa.
